Tourists

On the 6 train downtown yesterday (so many tourists everywhere! spring break meets St. Patrick's Day, I guess?), a teenage girl with her mom and her aunt were standing, talking about how pole dancing is supposed to be the best exercise, and suddenly they are performing their own impromptu renditions of that fabulous pole-dancing-on-the-train YouTube video. Oh, dancing on the train. In all its manifestations, one of my favorite things ever.

That's some serious extension.

Also, I wanted to reference this video in our discussion of de Certeau today vis a vis totalizing systems being used for ways they were not intended.

But I am a fan of dancing on the subway. Episode 2 is strippers in Union Square Park--not interested.
